Hey, guys. I'm curious about something. How much would you spend maximum on a ceiling fan?

No more than $800 I guess. Though I don't know much about ceiling fans and their prices, I'd have to do a little research first.

The most I've ever spent on a ceiling fan is $250...BUT I've seen a super-sweet one for $357 that I would love to own.

Good luck on your purchase!

You can get them from between $15 and $50 at a thrift store. I really don't care for more than $50 worth of ceiling fan.

I am more particular because I am likely to stare at them quite a bit (as does my son).

So it has to be "right."

I stare at the computer screen. So a screensaver you can download freely off the internet that runs on any computer with a dedicated video chipset is excellent. I can't stand lights because they are flourescent now and flicker like none other and make everything look like it's going in slow motion (why can't they make the phospers more persistant???! !!).

$0 Do not care for them. Like the noise from electric motors and fans but my AC or electric heater can provide that.

ceiling fans, correctly located, can reduce HVAC costs

Well! We don't stim off the ceiling fans with the lights on! (That would hurt our delicate eyes! Hehehe...)

Sometimes we have a flashlight that we'll shine on the fan while it is on various speeds.

It is just a stim that my son and I share...Bonding time, I guess.

$200. Can't go too cheap, but don't want to get too expensive either. Quality rules.
